Lyrics for Even The Sand Is Made Of Seashells

B-Side from A City By The Light Divided. Released on 7" red vinyl (free gift with preorder of A City By The Light Divided At Tower Records) and as a bonus track on iTunes (free with purchase of the full album). I hear the ocean breathing in a sigh A sea gull screaming over head just out of sight I see the Sun melt slowly in your eyes Fall into the dirty water time after time Every single shell was once alive, Just like the two of us. We wade down to the waters edge, And now there's nothing but grains of sand. A signal flashes faintly from the shore. Echos in the distance with the sound of your voice. Nothing's ever seemed so far away Wave after wave it's calling me. Wave after wave after wave. Every single shell was once alive, Just like the two of us. We step into the shallow end, To see what love is like. At the water's edge our lives wash up, The tide keeps rolling out. But now we're nothing, Now you're nothing but grains of sand La la la la La la la la Wave after after wave, I can feel that the end is coming. Breaking the step 'Til we sit at our last we're always Nothing but grains of sand
